Fast trains without intermediate stops, airports close by 
Up until World War II, railway traffic played a major role and employed thousands of people. Throughout time, more and more routes were cancelled.
The transfer of cargo from rail to road brought an end to the once significant railway infrastructure.
Today, Eupen is the only remaining passenger railway station of the region, shortly to be followed by Herbesthal and also Welkenraedt and Aachen or Verviers.
Secondary routes are continuously developed for recreational enjoyment, for athletes and fitness-fans, made into bicycling or walking paths and welcomed by the gastronomy sector.
 The north of East Belgium is still crossed by one of the most important railway routes toward Germany. The construction of the high-speed route Lüttich-Cologne is also at its height. It is regretful that there will not be an intermediate stop in this area. The next railway stations are Lüttich and Aachen.
Over time, further anchor points have established themselves as beneficial advantages for modern locations: five airports and Europe’s second-largest inland port in Lüttich is in the immediate proximity.
